The footsteps kept replaying in my ear
As my heart starts to beat rapidly
Tears form out of fear
Afraid to be left behind again

Yet what is done is done
Those footsteps would not come back
They will always be a memory of leaving
A painful and agonizing experience

But in a moment where I am lost
I try to find his face
And maybe I can see him coming back to me
Those footsteps were not leaving but coming home

Time passes by still I am in the past
Lingering to find the lost
Yet the footsteps start to fade away
And his face starts to blur

Where will I find them
I don’t want them to leave
Like the footsteps that left
Don’t let its sound leave me too

Till finally I saw your face
And heard your footsteps
Yet as I stood in front of you
Like the wind, I was only passed by

And as I look at your shadow leaving
With the same footsteps leaving once again
Amidst it all I found calmness
And felt my hand waving goodbye

The shadow, the footsteps and his face
They always leave me
But this time they finally bid farewell
And I did so too
